    I'm not looking in my spare room they just left. :D I will try in a day or so though.
    Look. I only popped in because I heard there were brownies, now not only have you lot eaten all the brownies, I find I have to clean the manky bit round the back of the loo? No - that's a boy-job - I'M not the one who makes it yucky I'm sure! :( Don't ven get me started on the spare room - if I start that job I'll never re-emerge! :rotfl:

    You'll fit right in. I've just taken my steeltoecaps off they're so muddy I look like I've grown an inch or two :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Today has been a good day at work.

    Thus far my steppage is 22942 been a bit of a back and forth with wheel barrows and hunting for elusive snowdrops kinda day. The blinking things are only starting to wake up. Too too early.

    TO compensate for the steps and the cold, I ate a free lunch after my own one. Whoops and came home and scoffed toast and then leftover tattie scones.

    And, I wonder why I can't lose weight. Two-lunch-pips

  • Finances.

    Wages in £230 from garden (wkly) £466 from wombles (monthly, not cleared)
    DH paid in his holiday share so I'm mega rich. (I jest) Must transfer that to the card.

    Need to put money in kids uni accounts £50 each and transfer most of rest of wages to cc

    Oil fund sitting at £250

    Bit of a spendy weekend. As I accidentally bought a couple bits at the xmas fayre at work. Only a wee table £45 and a piano stool £35 both reclaimed and painted white. Do like them. Shh I dont' often spend. Got a wee framed robin for £10 too its gorgeous.

    So that's my spreeing over with. Slaps hand.

    Misspickle Cheery DEFINITELY likes chocolate! well, cake generally, really! :rotfl:

    Stripes your comment about our spare room is appreciated but trust me it DOESN'T look like that at the moment - there would barely be room for even you in there right now - and you're only wee! :p

    Can you sing the snowdrops a lullaby to get them back to sleep again do you think? Or will the incoming colder weather slow them down enough? :D
